Casualty viewers perplexed after major schedule shake-up with no explanation

Casualty suffered a huge schedule blunder tonight which left viewers confused.

The popular BBC medical drama was due to air tonight at 8.40pm, however the show didn’t begin until 8.51pm.

There was no explanation or warning that the show would be airing at a later time, and fans flooded Twitter with questions.

One said: “Hello. Where are you #Casualty?”

While another wrote: “Is Casualty going to be on tonight?”

A third penned: “I thought Casualty was supposed to be on now.”

“What time is Casualty on?”, questioned a fourth viewer.

When the popular show about Holby City hospital finally began, fans were thrilled.

Some fans came to the conclusion that the show’s late airing was due to the football.

One said: “10 mins later than advertised due to Arsenal’s record breaking FA Cup win but it’s nearly #Casualty o’clock!”

While another exclaimed: “Oh, finally #Casualty’s on! Only took 11 extra minutes…”

It is now airing episodes filmed before lockdown, which explains why there is no social distancing in the programme.

The soap made headlines back in May after an episode was axed due to it being too “inappropriate” for air.

Viewers could find out the key moments of what happened in the catch-up segment, but they questioned what had happened to spark the show being taken off air.

One posted: “OK what’s the Casualty story that’s ‘inappropriate’?”

Another added: “So what s*** was meant to be going down in Casualty tonight then?”

“And now we’re having to miss an episode of Casualty because of Covid.

“I understand why they haven’t showed the episode but I hope they do show it eventually”, penned another viewer.

Casualty airs Saturdays at 8.40pm on BBC One.
